I clicked on all the available regions, and click the Refresh button. No servers are returned!

By the way, this is the most sophisticated online gameplay system I have ever encountered. First I have to enter a 15 characters profile. Then the online CDKEY. Then I found no servers! What's going on there?

If all of that was too complicated for you, you're going to have a heart attack when you try to play the actual game.

Are you sure it has to be 15 characters? I thought it was more like six, but whatever, i guess that's just too hard to do. http://forums.ubi.com/images/smilies/16x16_smiley-sad.gif

A lot of game don't require you to make an account.

Reuben, the only lobby worth being in is the world lobby, and you account name doesn't have to be 15 characters long.

Well, I suppose I can still put up with that. What happened was I entered the game via All-Seeing Eye actually. But that doesn't really matter that much I guess. And by the way the number of active server indicated by All-Seeing eye surprises me, there were only 14 of them about 2 hours ago before I am writing this post.

I was asked to enter a 15 characters, I guess it's the profile name. Still, I can live with that I suppose. But what annoys me is that it says my version is not compatible with that of the server!? The lobby never tells me my version is not up-to-date one thing, the other is that the there are no servers available for playing.

I am greatly disappointed that this game is not that crowded as indicated by All-Seeing eye. And in SP mode, it really sucks.

It's a 15 Character Maximum, from what i remember, it dosen't need to be 15 long.

Also usually the first thing u should do when u buy a game is check for patches, then download, and install them, especially if you intend to play online.

If there's no servers up... make your own and wait for people to join. Simple as that.

The All Seeing eye does NOT detect all of the actual servers. Use the game's server browser(you can still consult The Eye if you want to get an accurate ping[if The Eye sees the said server]).

And ffs if the game says that your version is out-of-date then it means that *THERE IS A PATCH AVAILABLE AND YOU HAVE NOT YET APPLIED IT*. I guess nobody saw that one coming! Use the auto-updater, it comes with the game and is in the Start-menu group.

I told him he was an idiot a week ago. He's just proving it now.

Dude, the "15 character profile name" is what you want your profile to be called. You can enter anything you want it to be, or just leave it blank and it'll be default. This is so if someone else uses your computer to play the game, they can load a different profile and keep their settings separate from yours. Really handy if you both like different controls or playing at different resolutions.

Most people host in the world lobby. The regional ones are empty because this game has like 200 players that even bother with it in the entire world.

Reuben, all your posts involve you complaining about stupid ****. You came on the forums instead of doing the online test for SvM. Now you need to make a profile and enter your CD Key. Oh ****, better take the game back before it gets any more complicated.

And, to reply constructively, there usually aren't a lot of servers unless it's peak hours. This game isn't so popular because of people scared away by the learning curve. *hint, hint* But at least you're making an attempt, eh?

Accually, the french lobby use to be quite good too. I think it's strange, you can see like 150 ppl in the world lobby and like 4-5 story games to join. And if you see like 30 ppl in the french lobby you'll get 3-4 story games to join. http://forums.ubi.com/groupee_common/emoticons/icon_confused.gif

I think the reason why you get so few people joining when you have like 150 players is becasue your filter is set to filter out full servers. SO you dont realize that probably 95% of the players we see in the lobby and we think they are just hanging out without a game are actually playing one. Thats why I think that it seems no one joins.
